I do hope you are not referring to the foul "Eddie" and his grease monkey wife fatty, for they are not millionaires-,but they can fuck themselves.

Somehow I'm less bothered by seeing Richard Branson on his yacht than I am by seeing that oily tub of lard Philip Green swanning round the Med off the back of Eddie's pension contributions. Poor Eddie. You've got to laugh tbough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Manky Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 I had to stand up on a train once. Hands up anyone who remembers the extensive coverage of that occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick_B Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Having a rail franchise is a win-win situation, if it goes pear shaped you just hand it back and walk away which is what National Express East Coast did in 2009. That's why it ended up being run successfully and profitably by Directly Operated Railways, in essence it was renationalised. Tory dogma meant that it had to be privatised again, which is how Virgin got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And its commie dogma that requires everything to be owned by the state and look at what happened to things owned by the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DingTheRioja Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Bearing in mind the moral integrity, honesty, intelligence and skillset of the average MP, why the fuck would you want to let them in charge of anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest deebom Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 The clue is the word 'public.' Public services should be run by Govt, for the 'public.' After all, it's in the Governments interest that the 'public' should be able to get to work as quickly, easy and cheaply as possible is it not? Surely this would be a good thing for the country as a whole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
